Laskiaispulla

That time of the year again; otherwise known as one of the best things of Easter. One more thing I miss from Finland.

Semla sounds tasty!
Is there no bakery around here that makes it?
We've found polish stuff before.

Nope. The only remaining Scandinavian bakery that I knew of in Lake Worth closed.

Doh!
Big suck!
If I find a Scandinavian bakery, I will be sure to let you know.

Mmm, pulla++. Almond paste sounds pretty tasty.

King Adolf Frederick of Sweden died of digestion problems on February 12, 1771 after consuming a meal ... which was topped off by 14 servings of semla, with bowls of hot milk.

Daaaamn. At least he died doing what he loved.

That looks delicious!
If I were in Finland for Easter that's ALL I would eat. And then I would probably die just like King Adolf Frederick ):
